BUM 2010 aims for unbiased gathering

KUALA LUMPUR: Bloggers’ Universe Malaysia (BUM) 2010 organising committee chairman YL Chong hopes the annual gathering this year will be more balanced compared with previous years.

“We try our best to make the event unbiased because we do not have any political alignments.”

He was looking forward to the event as the organisers were able to get mainstream media to take part in the gathering of active bloggers and aspiring local bloggers.

Among the confirmed speakers are The Sun’s investigative and special reports editor R. Nadeswaran, The Star’s managing business editor P. Gunasegaram and Utusan Malaysia managing editor and deputy editor-in-chief Zaini Hassan.
